As long as they have no diseases, it does not matter.

I think it can affect how you think of them now if you knew everything when really it doesn't matter. Experiences, good or bad, make us what we are today. Also, it would be all too easy in an argument to throw up something that happened in the past before you met which could have an adverse effect on an otherwise good relationship.

some things are best not known

I would not care as long as she has no STDs. I actually get annoyed when they go on and on about their previous lovers. I would be relieved if some didn't talk about their sexual history.
-
I would expect to know the truth. I don't think there should be any off limits topics between true life partners. After all, those are the people we are supposed to trust implicitly. To these special people, our lives should be open books.

Nope, I wouldn't even want to know! We'd both have a past and as long as we have no diseases I don't think that matters!

i dont need to know unless the have an STD
-
i dont think they should the past is the past,,and its what lead her to what she is now, so it shouldnt matter but you shouldnt want to know...

I once knew this coworker that kept a diary that included each woman he had sex with. This man was sick. Good thing his wife does not know about it.
-
I need to know the truth.
-
I really want to know the truth, but I have discovered that some are not always willing to confess.
-
Hell yeah it matters! But not to the point of breaking up with her (unless she's one of the two girls with the cup...)
-
I used to want to know this....until one day the girl I was about to marry told me. It really was hard for me to respect her as a person after that. I would say at this point for me it does not matter, and in some cases, trust me, I would prefer not to know.

I honestly don't care and don't ask. I will ask if they have been tested for STD's but it's not like I require written documentation.

My S/O and I talked about our previous sex life once, I asked him how many people he had been with. He gave me a number, but I later found out that he only told me of the ones that he was in a serious relationship with, not the one night stands or the friends with benefits. I am curious to know who was the best, who was the most adventurous, etc.... I don't think it would make a difference to me if he had been with a hundred other girls or only one other girl. He doesn't have any std's and his penis isn't about to fall off, so I am ok with it. There are a lot of questions I would like to ask, but sometimes I think it would be better not to know!
